I want to know how does the kernel extract CPU utilization info from my x86 CPU. I figure this is the place where it gets the data: http://lxr.linux.no/linux/fs/proc/proc_misc.c#L441 but I don't know where it gets the data from. I've tried following the kstat_cpu link, but it didn't get me to anywhere I found useful or understandable. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send an email with "unsubscribe kernelnewbies" to ecartis@xxxxxxxxxxxx Please read the FAQ at http://kernelnewbies.org/FAQ
